and by all reports a solid defensive catcher and gamecaller. and he's gone from slightly old for A+ to slightly young for AAA now, and is still thriving.

he might be one of the best catching prospects in baseball.

but the craziest stat of all of his stats this year has to be the insane fact that he has only swung and missed at 3.3% of his pitches seen this year.

3.3%.

Can anyone else find a number like that for any other prospect? vlad and bo are amazing in their own right but have swst rate around 8-9%, which is great. the best i can find is mookie betts posting around a 4.0% rate at 21 between AA/AAA.

I mentioned DJ Davis a few days ago, and had another great game today, 3 for 4 with a HR, 2B, SB, 2 walks, 4 runs scored, 4 driven in. He's now got a .400 BA over his last 11 games with 2 HR's, 5 SB's, 5 BB's. If he's figured something out, he's back on the prospect scene. Or, maybe it's just a random hot streak. Dunedin scored 16 runs with only 10 hits, Bo and Vlady were a combined 3 for 11. Bit of an oddity in the game - Biggio, De La Cruz, Almonte and Sotillo were a combined 0 for 11, but they scored 8 runs. Rough game for Jordan Romano, 9 hits and 2 walks in 2 1/3 IP, 6 ER, but he actually left with the lead.

I'm really ready to watch for Carlos Ramirez in the game threads and not the minor league updates.

I also know it is to be expected, but it is encouraging to see Logan Warmoth to hit for both above average to great contact and power. I know it's nit picky to to point out his awful walk rate, but you'd like to see a bit more discipline.
